Can I get one in adult size? With wheels and a motor to run errands around town?

Needs a seat belt and a back seat... and mirrors. Seriously, great gag gift if it supported an adult.

Now THAT makes sense. Sign me up!!! (Will it come with snow-tires? I will need snow-tires.)

Yes an adult can use, but it is bad to carry even foldable. The handlebars fold and not all equipment is heavy. It is very tiring to use it for long periods.

You could but it's pretty slow and small. You might need a bigger motor type bike. My boy is much younger and I wanted something not too powerful for him. Good luck.

I have the adult version as with anything I would go with the manufacturer's recommendations. there is a learning curve but if your child is on a push scooter and doing well I bet they would get control of it fairly quickly. it's not good for going uphill.

You could, but I wouldn't recommend it for long term. We have 4 of these scooters, 1 is a 12 inch for my 5 year old, they aren't the best quality, but would last longer where we live than the type with skateboard wheels. Also it's pretty short. My almost 12 year old son is 5'2" and he's slightly hunched over riding it, even with the handle bars extended all the way up. There is a company that does make scooters for adults that would last longer long term, but they aren't cheap.

It has wheels. I am female and I can move it. We have run it in the rain, but not heavy rain, but it doesn't snow where we are.

Most likely you will be able to ride it, but it may not be comfortable. If you are just learning, the small size may make learning more difficult. I think you would be better off buying a 20 in wheel.

Might be a little too small. But if you use this for leisure purpose, might be okay. But if you are using this for serious move-around... u might want to get a little bigger one.

I believe the answer to your question is yes, it could be used by this person. However, I have to caution you on the durability of this scooter. We bought one for my brother, who has cerebral palsy, and it lasted less than a year and was problematic for most of that time. There were issues with the battery, the charger, stalling and finally in just getting it to turn on and run. None of these were satisfactorily addressed by the manufacturer so we replaced it this Christmas with better quality piece of equipment.

They have one available but it is an option for about $40. It is a two wheel device that could easily be home made.

We purchased and highly recommend a Speed Queen. This is a commercial type of machine, simple and well built. You may have to search for a local dealer. It may seem to cost a little more. It is worth it.

That is relative my friend. It is a big machine and the wheels are quality. I 6'2" and 260 lbs. I can move it around but got tired of that and built a nice generator box right by my house. I created an outdoor plugin to run it to my transfer switch ($300 with self install). Works great. But is is big. Sux trying to move it in the snow. buy a few 2x4s, 4x4s, and plywood to remedy that problem (another $500 if you are handy). hope that helps. It is a great generator and runs my whole house (Small)

I use my kids scooter (like this one) and I am older than 40 ;) If you plan on doing tricks, or need a heavier duty scooter, look at the Shaun White Scooter, although the handlebars come at a lower fixed length.

It's little to big for him. Buy him the scooter with three wheels. We always see those at the skate park.

Not at all! In fact the 2-stroke motor is oriented more for adults. Kids would feel more comfortable with an electric scooter. The motor has a great power band and makes torque seemingly at all rev ranges compared to a 4-stroke. The motor does not need to be taken off to be worked on. You can also very easily replace the seat it comes with, don't expect to stand if you are over '5"5. Mine has had very few problems getting me places past the first couple weeks.

Yes, the foot pedal is sturdy enough for adult use. I would say this machine is a bit difficult for kids to use because the rod holding the thread is a bit flimsy so it is more difficult for my kids to use due of the lack of tension on the top thread for the first few stitches.
